At Shockwave Body and Solutions, we help patients across Philadelphia, South Jersey, and the Main Line find lasting relief from chronic knee pain—without surgery, injections, or long recovery times. Whether you’re an athlete, a weekend warrior, or someone dealing with joint pain from arthritis or injury, our advanced shockwave therapy treatments are designed to get you moving again—quickly, safely, and naturally.
What Causes Knee Pain?
Knee pain is one of the top reasons patients come to us. Whether it’s due to aging, trauma, or overuse, the underlying issues can vary widely:
- Osteoarthritis – cartilage degeneration causing joint stiffness and swelling
- Patellar tendinitis (jumper’s knee) – inflammation of the tendon beneath the kneecap
- Meniscus tears – cartilage damage inside the joint from twisting injuries
- Ligament injuries – affecting the ACL, MCL, PCL, or LCL
- Knee bursitis – inflammation of the protective fluid sacs
- IT band syndrome – often affecting runners and cyclists
- Post-surgical scar tissue – lingering discomfort after previous operations
- Overuse injuries – from repetitive motion in sports, work, or daily activity
Conservative Knee Pain Treatments
Before considering surgery, many patients start with non-surgical knee pain treatments, including:
- Rest and temporary activity changes
- Ice or heat therapy to manage inflammation
- Physical therapy to improve strength and mobility
- Supportive braces or taping
- NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs)
- Corticosteroid injections
- Hyaluronic acid injections for joint lubrication
- Weight loss strategies to reduce joint pressure
Unfortunately, many patients experience only partial or temporary relief. That’s when our specialized shockwave therapy for knee pain becomes a powerful next step.
What Is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy, also known as extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), is a non- invasive, drug-free treatment that uses acoustic waves to stimulate healing in damaged tissues. At Shockwave Body Solutions, our specialized protocols deliver precision treatments directly to the areas that need it most—without needles, medication, or downtime.
How Shockwave Therapy Helps Knee Pain
Our therapy targets the root causes of your knee pain—not just the symptoms. It works by:
- Stimulating collagen production to repair tendons and ligaments
- Improving blood flow for accelerated healing
- Breaking down scar tissue and calcifications
- Reducing chronic inflammation in the joint
- Interrupting nerve signals to ease persistent pain
Shockwave therapy is especially effective for patellar tendinitis, arthritic joint pain, meniscus- related issues, and post-surgical discomfort.
Treatment Plan and Recovery Timeline
At Shockwave Body Solutions, your treatment is customized for your condition and lifestyle. A typical plan includes:
- 5 sessions, spaced one week apart
- Each session lasts 15–20 minutes
- No anesthesia or downtime required
- Most patients feel improvement after 2–3 treatments
- Continued healing occurs for weeks after the final session
You can walk out of your session and resume your normal day—no crutches, no recovery bed, and no interruption to your routine.
Proven Success Rates
Clinical studies and patient outcomes show a 70–90% success rate for shockwave therapy in treating knee pain, especially for chronic cases and overuse injuries. Many of our patients in Philadelphia, South Jersey, and the Main Line have avoided surgery altogether thanks to our evidence-based approach.
Is Surgery Still Needed?
Surgery is typically considered a last resort. Options like arthroscopic knee surgery or knee replacement come with longer recovery times and higher risks. Shockwave therapy provides a powerful, non-surgical alternative for most knee conditions.
